| |
3.6.11.9-rc1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Bu, Yitian" <ybu@qti.qualcomm.com>
[ Upstream commit dbda92d16f8655044e082930e4e9d244b87fde77 ]
commit 07354eb1a74d1 ("locking printk: Annotate logbuf_lock as raw") reintroduced a lock inversion problem which was fixed in commit 0b5e1c5255 ("printk: Release console_sem after logbuf_lock"). This happened probably when fixing up patch rejects.
Restore the ordering and unlock logbuf_lock before releasing console_sem.
